Saudi cinematographer with over a decade of experience in the film industry. Throughout my career, I have worked on a wide range of commercial and branded productions, including projects released in cinemas, on Netflix, and across various digital platforms.
Over the past two years, I have also contributed to around 20 short films, many of which have been showcased at international film festivals, allowing me to collaborate with diverse creative teams and gain experience across different styles of visual storytelling.
My visual approach is often rooted in naturalistic lighting. I am particularly drawn to practical and real-world light sources, constantly observing and recreating their qualities to achieve authentic and immersive imagery.
At the same time, I enjoy adapting my style to the unique needs of each project, exploring different visual languages and lighting techniques to best support the story, mood, and creative vision of the work.
I place great value on creative collaboration and working alongside artists from different backgrounds and disciplines. Meaningful collaborations are often what shape artistic perspectives, opening the door to new ideas, approaches, and ways of seeing the world.
The exchange of cultures, experiences, and creative influences creates a unique synergy that expands artistic possibilities and enriches the final work in unexpected and inspiring ways.
I’m also a certified Trinity 2 operator, having earned my certification under Curt Schaller. This has expanded the way I tell stories, giving me greater freedom of camera movement and allowing for more dynamic, expressive visuals.
I became a certified ARRI Trinity 2 operator in 2022, and have since worked on a range of narrative films and commercial projects. Working with the Trinity has given me an additional visual language, using movement to express emotion, which allows me to approach storytelling in a more nuanced and distinctive way.
